2125273 9312345 PCTABS00023 A framing system (10) is disclosed including three-dimensional structural members (12, 14) formed from planar panels (16) having their edges removably secured together by provisions (48) including a slide connector (66) which receives lugs (52) slideably received in and abutting with latches (56). The panels (16) include interconnect ports (22) having integral, concentric tubes (24). The exterior faces (18) of the structural members (12, 14) are abutted together, with the structural members (12, 14) being clamped by a clamping band (28) having a central wall (30) abutting with the tubes (24) and first and second side walls (32, 34) abutting with the free faces (25) of the tubes (24). In the preferred form, the clamping band (28) is split and is removably locatable in the ports (22) by being distortable into a helical shape by flex notches (40, 42) formed in the side walls (32, 34). Relative rotation is prevented between the clamping band (28) and the structural members (12, 14) by detents (44) formed in the clamping band (28) which are received in notches (26) formed in the free face (25) of the tubes (24).
